Overview:
A lot less filler equals a much better album this time
around. In fact, instead of going out
with a whimper, AC/DC goes out with a bang on The Razor’s Edge as the last three songs are some of the strongest
on the album.
Tracks you may
know:
Thunderstruck – Have you ever seen a sports movie? Then you’ve probably heard “Thunderstruck”.
Moneytalks – More good fun from Angus and the crew as the
hook gets you and never lets you go.
Tracks you should
know:
Let’s Make It, Goodbye and Good Riddance to Bad Luck and If
You Dare – The best closing trio of songs on any AC/DC album in their career,
incredibly solid and leaves you feeling satisfied instead of cheated (like the
ending of the last few albums did).
My personal favorite:
If You Dare – I don’t know why this stands out so much, the
backup vocals maybe…it’s got a creepy vibe to go along with the great
riff. The best closing song in their
catalogue.
Album rating:
Back with a vengeance.
One of their best albums and the best of the late 80’s for sure.
8/10
